From the first day I set my eyes on #LabarinaSeries, I thought it would be an amazing film that would deliver some special lessons.

Recently, I have come to understand the similarities of the stories of Sumayya (the fictional character of the series) and Steve Jobs, the co-founder of Apple, Inc.

 

In the film, Sumayya’s attempts of meeting her biological father is always thwarted by her mother, because they do not know his whereabouts for several years.

 

So, those scenes quickly remind me the story of Steve Jobs and his biological father, Abdulfatah Jandali. Despite being a follower of his trends, I’ve never watched a single clip of him mentioning his real father, even though I knew that he’s a Syrian professor of Economics and Political Science.

 

But frankly speaking, Steve never wanted to meet his biological father or reveal their relationship publicly, not because his maternal grandpa never liked his daughter’s relationship with Jandali, but because he had never contributed a single penny for his life and his sister.

 

In Labarina Series, Sumayya’s mother does not like her daughter to search for her father because he left them and had never liked to take care of his daughter. So, this resembles the story of Steve Jobs.

 

In the mid of 20th century, Abdulfatah Jandali met Joanne Schieble when he was lecturing at Wisconsin University. Joanne gave birth to Steve after a year, in 1955, before marrying Jandali. Later, they got married after Steve was given to her aunt for adoption.

 

This also looks similar to the story of Barrack Obama. His father, Barrack Hussein Obama Sr. was a Kenyan statesman who met Ann Dunham (Obama’s mother) when he was studying at the University of Hawaii. She divorced him after a few years; then he returned to his native land, and she continued taking care of her son —who later became the 44th President of the United States.

 

So, Jandali had to meet his second daughter, Mona for the second time after a decade —when he left her since infancy. He never knew that Steve was his biological son until the late 2000s. In all those days of hardship, he was nowhere to be found.

 

This is to say, Jandali had never contributed anything to his children, Steve and Mona for a better life. This case is also similar to Larry Ellison’s story, whose mother gave him for adoption when he was only 9-months old but had not met him again until he was 48.

 

People take their children to some places to acquire a piece of certain knowledge, but do not know how they struggle day and night to survive. This, of course, distances the relationship between them, and it even plucks out their mutual understanding.

 

Steve Jobs never liked to reveal his identity to his father many years before the father got to know; despite being famous, he rejected him all his life. Steve had to bear the surname of his adoptive father, and his sister Mona bears the surname of her stepdad. Now, Jandali is left empty.

 

Key Points:

—Steve Jobs, a son of a professor who had never graduated from college

—Abdulfatah Jandali, a professor and an owner of a restaurant who gave birth to one of the richest people in history

—Barrack Obama, the first black American to rule the United States

—Larry Ellison, the seventh richest person in the world who had not met his biological mother for over 40 years

—Joanne Schieble slipped away to Syria with her lover, Jandali, despite the fact that her father forbade their relationship.
